Kamasi Washington on his latest album 'Fearless Movement'
Primary Content
Fatherhood often changes a man, but it doesn’t always get you a great co-writer in the studio. Fortunate, then, that Kamasi Washington's daughter Asha is good around a keyboard, even as a toddler.
Her tinkering led to the melody of a new song on the jazz star's third studio album, Fearless Movement. Washington calls it a "dance album," but his meaning extends past the dance floor and into all forms of movement as expression.
In this session, Washington talks about the ways in which fatherhood has changed him, the need for connection, and working with André 3000.
